Hacktoberfest 2020 Official Kick-Off Celebration
October 1, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
Join DigitalOcean as we officially kick off the 7th annual Hacktoberfest!
REGISTER HERE: http://do.co/hf_kickoff
Celebrate with DigitalOcean to get a head start on the 4 pull requests that will qualify you for a limited tee or tree donation reward. This will be an event of learning about and sharing open-source projects, engaging with the NYC open source community, and getting into some contributing!
Hacktoberfest — brought to you by DigitalOcean in partnership with Intel & DEV — is a month-long celebration of open source software. Maintainers are invited to guide would-be contributors towards issues that will help move the project forward, and contributors get the opportunity to give back to both projects they like and others they’ve just discovered. No contribution is too small — bug fixes and documentation updates are valid ways of participating.
Can’t make it to this online meetup? Hacktoberfest is virtual and open to participants from around the globe. Sign up to participate today: https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/
